  What's on will depend when you are coming.

  It's a massive tourist trap and the locals probably despise it, but from a graphic designy point of view the illusions museum is actually worth the money

  

  • camera obscura is fun– 23kon1/2

    WOW!– honest2/2

  — Dunno about Edinboro, but The Butchershop Bar & Grill on Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow is pretty damn good.
